ABB 3ADT218042S0224 DC Converter Module - 690 VAC, 2050 A (4Q Converter)

High-capacity 4Q DC conversion is the core feature, rated for 690 VAC and 2050 A, with a robust 110 kg chassis. This enables direct DC powering of high-torque drive systems, reducing the need for multiple stage converters and cutting heat losses in power electronics. In practice, you’ll see faster commissioning, improved torque response, and lower maintenance for large-scale conveyors, metal forming, and heavy-duty pumps. Control and communication: The module offers 3 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs for precise feedback and remote monitoring, enabling tighter control loops and faster fault isolation. This supports seamless integration with ABB DCS880 controllers and existing PLC networks, reducing wiring complexity and risk of signal loss. Field engineers benefit from diagnostics data to optimize performance and energy usage. Physical and installation characteristics: The unit weighs 110 kg and measures 410 mm × 510 mm × 944 mm, designed for cabinet or floor mounting in industrial environments. The 4Q converter is compatible with standard ABB drive architectures, simplifying replacement or upgrade. Packaging and handling considerations are minimized by stock availability at DEAPREXPU and SGIND002EXPU warehouses. Compliance, standards, and procurement: It adheres to IEC 60529/EN 60529 protection references and IEC 60947-1 interfaces, with IP00 auxiliary terminals for basic control wiring. Lead time is 35 days, but stock is available at multiple warehouses to support just-in-time needs; warranty terms require return of defective units. These factors reduce project risk and ensure regulatory alignment across global operations. Applications, ROI, and business value: For industrial automation projects, this ABB module offers reliable high-current DC conversion, predictable uptime and scalable performance. By consolidating power electronics into a single DCS880-compatible module, operators achieve lower total cost of ownership and faster ROI through reduced spare parts, simplified maintenance, and improved line throughput.
